Um Yeah … Apple Called It iPad … And It Sounds Like A Femine Hygiene Product

January 27, 2010
By Judy Grundstrom

Today Apple launched it’s long awaited tablet.  Fans everywhere, including me, are super excited about this new piece of technology and can’t wait to get our hands on it.  There’s just one thing.  Apple called it the iPad.  And it sounds like a femine hygiene product.  And people have been making fun of it on Twitter all day.  Here are some of my favorite Tweets from my peeps.

How embarrassing, I can’t believe you noticed!

Yeah, that’s me.

And, the person who called the name a week ago, Jackie Bateman.  Would someone please give this woman a prize?

    This is pretty much the hottest thing out there. Not the iPad, but this post.

    Thanks, Judy!

    Within the iPad v. Kindle situation, this gives the publishers one thing of a negotiating lever ?X if Amazon won??t budge on their terms/conditions, I??ll visit Apple. Etc.

    I don??t really have insightful things to say about it. I simply marvel if this made the Kindle obsolete. It sure seems prefer it (whether or not the worth is initially high). Thus, you know, I marvel what it will mean for publishing. I still think that we tend to??re on a course where publishers don’t have any warehouses, however instead have a big printer/binder on-sight. A book will be printed when there??s some indication that a client needs it.

    It can conjointly force Amazon to open up the Kindle API for third party development (or, a minimum of, if they??re sensible).

    One question I do have is: Do smaller publishing corporations have all their stuff obtainable for download? And did the pander to ATT produce a monopoly to a degree? Those queries are on my mind about this.

    I don??t know.Strange times.When the Professor and I were talking this weekend, I remarked, nevertheless once more, concerning how we all got email addresses my junior year of faculty, which we tend to never used, as a result of nobody had computers and you had to go to the library to test your email. And that they talked of some way off time in the future when everybody would have an entire gig of memory and you??d have each little bit of content you ever generated with you for perpetually and even then, you??d never be in a position to use a whole gig.

    I still surprise if we won??t see a flip in the ??publishing?? model, too, where, rather than the publisher essentially ??hiring?? a stable of writers, if we won??t see a stable of writers pool their resources to rent an editor, marketer/publicist, and copyeditor/designer (and, presumably, some reasonably accountant).

    It is also a glorified Kindle. Why buy the $500 Kindle when you can have an iPad that does a dozen more things as well, and has App access.

    I love the new touch screen generation because it is easy to switch between different programs. But I think it must give a notebook with a touch screen like the iPad because it is useful by the work. Why nobody offer such notebooks?

    This IPad thing is certainly looking very good… the whole set of specifications etc… but this time I read this, I instantly don’t like it in almost any respect. I’m a very pleased owner of an iTouch (2nd Generation) and I do think this thing has upgraded a great deal in comparison with the initial generation. And thus it will always be much better, but remember that … Never get yourself a product from Apple in the event that it’s just one year on the market, they may improve it nonetheless they often improve step-by-step to acheive increase profits employing their company solutions… Very wise folks :-)
